a hazard which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury. WARNING indicates a hazard which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury. CAUTION

minor or moderate injury. CAUTION, when used

avoid or reduce the risk of injury or death.
Only qualified electricians and gaseous fuel
technicians should attempt installation of this
system, which must strictly comply with applicable
codes, standards and regulations.
The manufacturer cannot possibly anticipate every possible
circumstance that might involve a hazard.The warnings in
this manual, and the tags and decals affixed to the unit are,
therefore, not all-inclusive. If you use a procedure, work
method or operating technique that the manufacturer does
not specifically recommend, you must satisfy yourself that it
is safe for you and others.You must also make sure that the
procedure, work method or operating technique that you
choose does not render the generator unsafe.
NOTE: Your generator is equipped with a spark arrester
muffler.The spark arrester must be maintained in effective
working order by the owner/operator. In the State of
California, a spark arrester is required by law (Section 4442
of the California Public Resources Code). Other states may
have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal lands.
Storage batteries give off explosive hydrogen gas
during recharging.
Hydrogen gas stays around battery for a long
time after battery has been charged.
Slightest spark will ignite hydrogen and cause
explosion.
You can be blinded or severely injured.
Battery electrolyte fluid contains acid and is
extremely caustic.
Contact with battery fluid will cause severe
chemical burns.
